    Change to synthetic oil?

    CJ? YJ? Springs Who knew bringing up synthetic oil was like bringing up the death penalty. I'll be switching to synthetic on my next oil change. And if I have any leaks they will be fixed promptly. If using better oil and fixing hidden problems is wrong then I don't want to be right. Just...

    Change to synthetic oil?

    Thanks for the response. I will probably make the switch. It's not that much more expensive now that I think about it. 3 cases a year so $30 more a year.

    Change to synthetic oil?

    Take a look at some Future Jeeps I have a 1994 YJ with 74k miles. I was thinking about synthetic for my next oil change, which should be due in a couple of weeks. Is it worth the extra money for my jeep? Also heard that regular oil has benefits that synthetic does not have. Any idea what...

    Ok boys help a girl out

    The part should cost around 40-75 but depending on your mechanic and how overpriced he/she is, the labor could be anwhere from 100-300. I say do it yourself or expect to pay at least 200-250. If it is more than that find a new mechanic. My girlfriend's mother got taken for 1100 for both...

    dirty oil question

    I'm not surprised they broke something. I've heard many bad stories about them. They are notorious for forgetting to put caps back on.

    dirty oil question

    I've never seen oil come out of an engine after 3000 miles that wasn't jet black. P.S. Never go to Jiffy Lube again. But if you have to, make sure that you check everything under the hood before driving away.

    Tire Width vs. Wheel Width

    The easiest way to get the correct contact patch is to lower the air pressure, but it is not a good idea to go below 28 psi if you do a lot of highway driving. I work part time in the Bj's Wholesale Club tire center (if anyone here has ever heard of it, it's like Costco or Sam's Club if you've...

    94' wrangler Miss Purple

    1983 CJ-5 frame style and frequency of repair? $5500 minus $1000 for transmission and other fix-ups, however, if you fix the transmission and get everything running perfectly I would ask $6000. But that's just my opinion.

    new coil? or is it a waste of money?

    I think the coil I have is fine, but I was looking into getting a better coil because supposedly they improve starting and idling. What I was really wondering is if it is marketing bull or not.

    new coil? or is it a waste of money?

    I just bought a 94 wrangler sahara, and to start things off gave it a full tune up (rotor, cap, wires, plugs). I was wondering if I should get a new ignition coil. It has a little bit of a rough idle and I heard that a better coil could help this. I was thinking about the accel super coil but...
